Put Them On

At my eco-book group I made a joke about how cold it was.

"That's Ithaca"
they said
and
"Long underwear."
"Long underwear?"
"Long underwear- I'm wearing them right now"
"me too"
"me too"
"I'm wearing tights."

Let me get this straight, every one of you is wearing long underwear or tights under your pants right now.

yes.

Then everyone showed me their wool socks.

All winter I've been huddled under an afghan trying not to turn up the thermostat.

Apparently what I really need to do is put on my long johns, get myself some Smartwool socks and turn the thermostat DOWN.

I have them on right now.

I am finally not cold.
